Jeff Gordon’s three-year-old daughter, Ella, helped design the paint scheme her dad will run on his No. 24 Chevrolet in the Sept. 5 Sprint Cup Series race at Atlanta.
Ella, with some help from artist Sam Bass, created the design, which includes a new logo design for the newly renamed Jeff Gordon Children's Foundation.
Ella visited the Sam Bass Gallery in Concord in May to work on the creation of design.
"I can't wait to run Ella and Sam's design, and I can't think of a better way to showcase the new Foundation logo and name than on that car," Gordon said.
